[Ben Kweller]-In Other Words
Another night slips away.
In other words I should say
there are no words he should say.
There are no words.
In his eyes I see the fear
that only time can disappear.
If only time could reappear.
Now's the time.
Something to take it away.
To take it away. To take it.
Don't let it stay.
Don't let it stay. Don't let it.
The butterflies are passive/aggressive
and put their problems on the shelf
but they're beautiful.
And he'll realize the only thing that's real
are the kids that kid themselves, and the demise
of the beautiful. What is beautiful?
The multi-life is better than
the one we're in - the one we knew.
'Cause everyone is seeing through
everyone.
They're stepping on his gold terrain.
He's moving on with bold refrain.
His blatantly old campaign
Is moving on.
Something to take it away.
To take it away. To take it.
Don't let it stay.
Don't let it stay. Don't let it.
The butterflies are passive/aggressive
and put their problems on the shelf
but they're beautiful.
And he'll realize the only thing that's real
are the kids that kid themselves, and the demise
of the beautiful. What is beautiful?
What can't stay goes away.
What can't stay goes away.
It starts stopping when it stops stopping

The Early November - Ever So Sweet |
] |
Your time has already come and I don't know why
The last thing that I had heard
you were doin' just fine
It seems like just yesterday
I was laughing with you
Playing games at Grandma's house
well you taught me well, didn't you?
I hope I'm just like you
Do they have radios in heaven?
I hope they do
'Cause they're playing my song on the radio
And I'm singing it to you
You left before I had a chance to say goodbye
But that's the way life usually is
it just passes you by
But you can't hold on to regrets and you can't look back
So I'll just be thankful for the times that I had with you
I hope I'm just like you
Do they have radios in heaven?
I hope they do
'Cause they're playing my song on the radio
And I'm singing it to you
If they don't have radios in heaven
here's what I'll do
I can bring my guitar when my time is up and I'll play it for you
Tell me can you hear me now
if not, then I can try to sing real loud
What's it like up on the other side of the clouds?
I hope I'm just like you
I hope I turn out to be as good as you

remember febuary when our eyes first met. traced the features, watched every breath. pirouettes and ballet steps, glassy eyed and the pain you expressed. can i promise you this love can be found again?
will we go on? i can't give you everything you wanted, and you say it isn't fair
now the time has come to arizona and the rest of your life. well i hope that you will find some peace there and the meaning to your life, and that this love that we had maybe in vain will someday meet again.
and this is what you wanted. i can't give you what you wanted. i can't give you everything you want.

Rockets Red Glare- Cold Feet
RRG is a local band- this song is amazing. it's on mp3.com if u want it
There she is looking so unapproachable
i get so emotional when she comes into view
That this attraction's my biggest distraction
to the world around me when she comes into view
This much is weighing so heavy on my chest
And I can't explain it but your smile says it best
But never in a million years will we end up like this...
she said never in a million years will we be sharing a kiss
never...
And if you were mine, i'd never let go
If you were mine, I'd want the world to know
But never in a million years will we end up like this
She said, never in a million years will we be sharing a kiss
Your lips move closer to mine
I'll be falling in love for the last time
Your lips move closer to mine
I'll be falling in love for the last time
Your lips move closer to mine
I'll be falling in love for the last time
for the last time...

Hey I'm new, add me as your friend if you want.
Pedro the Lion- When they really get to know you they will run
what makes you think
that it won't grow back
in a day or two
husbands in winter
they know the truth
but what can they do
i don't like girls the way they are
so shave their legs
and make them look like movie stars
then we can pretend it's natural
put on whatever makes you attractive
if it's not you then do it for the sake of fashion
your friends like a certain you
that's who you've got to be
junior high legs
blonde hair gone brown
from removing it
waxing since thirteen
wisdom from a beauty queen
her tiara diggin deep in her head
i'm starting to think that i'm kind of shy
or at least i'd like to be
winter legs give me heart attacks
so take it off with lasers
so it never comes back
then we can pretend it's natural

Scattered thoughts keep runnin through my head.
I keep thinking 'bout all the wrong things that I said.
Didn't mean to bring you down with me,
I'm so stupid cause I'll never let things fade.
I don't understand all the things you say.
Your words steal my head, they're pushing me away.
Don't understand all the things you do.
You're out to break me down and get me over you.
(I'm tryin all I can now, to get away from you now.
I'm tryin all I can to get away from you)
I'm tryin all I can now(now)..to get away from you(you)
(I'm tryin all I can now, to get away from you now.

She said
"you're a touch overrated,
you're a lush and I hate it

Need to know (need to know)
Is that I'm somethin you'll be missin

Unless I had to

And with my one last gasping breath
I'd apologize for bleedin on your shirt

i have been banned from seeing the person that i love and it has ripped us apart and so many things are going wrong now
The Postal Service - Nothing Better
(guy)
Would someone please call a surgeon
who can crack my ribs and repair this broken heart
that you'edeserted for better company
I can't accept that it's over
and I will block the door
like a goalie attending the net
in the third quarter
of a tied game rivalry
so just say how to make it right
and I swear I'll do my best to comply
tell me am I right to think that there could be nothing better
than making you my bride and slowly growing old together
(Girl)
I feel I must interject here
you're getting carried away
feeling sorry for yourself
with these revisions and gaps in history
so let me help you remember
I've made charts and graphs
that should finally make it clear
I've prepared a lecture
on why I have to leave
so please back away and let me go
I can't my darling; I love you so
oh oh
(guy)
tell me am I right to think that there could be nothing better
than making you my bride and slowly growing old together.
(girl)
Don't you feed me lies about some idealistic future
You know I won't hear right if you keep tearing out the sutures
(guy)
I know that I have made mistakes
and I swear I'll never wrong you again
(girl)
You've got a lure I can't deny
but you've had your chance
so say goodbye
Say goodbye

Spitalfield x Make My Heart Attack |
] |
"I Love You...Too"
I swallow hard because I know
That what comes next will hurt
(You more than me)
I bite my lip to try to stop it from shaking;
The teeth have broken the skin
And the blood tastes cold to me
After all those nights you kept me warm,
I'd hold my breath just to hear you sleep
I must admit I saw it coming...
The air between us had gotten harder yet to breathe.
I'd run away if I could help it,
But I can't remember to forget your face
You can say my heart has changed,
But it's my will you've beaten down
I'd kiss you now, but I fear my caustic tongue would only
Serve to salt your wounds
You are as beautiful as ever,
Yet I'm starting to resent your smile
Because it's killing me to say this,
But I'm dying inside to leave
It's a place we've never been,
It's a waste to keep it in
It means little to you but the world to me
THIS IS A BEAUTIFUL SONG. ;x

"Afraid To Say This"
The arrow struck my heart again. I picked a rose and bled misery away.
I stepped into the light just to see a glimpse of you.
It feels like I'm in a movie, as the orchestra plays you in.
Slow motion when you flip your hair. That shine in your eyes, it melts me.
I wish I could say this all to you, but my heart jumps in my throat when you look my way.
My spine crawls out of my back. There's so much I wish I could say but I'm afraid.
[chorus]
Take this rose and stop the bleeding. My broken heart is on my sleeve.
And I don't wanna live in regret and let you get away.
Take this rose and stop the bleeding. My broken heart is on my sleeve.
You can make it all better. All it needs is just one kiss.
I wish I could reach out and your hand would find its way to mine.
Touch my lips and soothe my wounds. Remove this cross I've carried so long.
You cry and wish there was someone for you.
I wish I could tell you.
[chorus]
Take this rose and stop the bleeding. My broken heart is on my sleeve.
And I don't wanna live in regret and let you get away.
Take this rose and stop the bleeding. My broken heart is on my sleeve.
You can make it all better. All it needs is just one kiss.
Never say you don't look pretty. Whoever told you that lie is jealous of you.

eurology for an angel by from autumn to ashes |

If I gave you pretty enough words.
could you pain a picture of us that works.
an emphasis on function rather than design.
aren't you tired cause I will carry you, on a broken back
and blown out knees, I have been where you are for a while..
Aren't you tired of being weak?
Such rage that you could scream
the stars right out of the sky
And destroy the prettiest starry night
every evening that I die.
I am exhumed just a little less human and a lot more bitter and cold.
I am exhumed.. just a little less human....
so much more bitter and cold....
after all these images of pain, have cut right thru you,
I will kiss every scar, and weep you are not alone...
then I'll show you that place in my chest where my heart still tries to beat
aren't you tired of being weak?
Such rage that you could scream
the stars right out of the sky
and destroy the prettiest starry night
every evening that I die
live love burn die

Tonight
Under lights we stroll
And we're never coming back
And I swear
I'll never let you go
If you come away
With me
I'm never gonna know,
Never gonna know,
Lets go
Out of this place,
Make it happen,
Someday
Find the time
No matter where you are
When your day it comes again
Make it last
No matter how so far
Another day will come again
I swear I'll never let you go
If you come away with me
Alone all night
Alone we'll be singing
Never gonna know
Never gonna know
Lets go
Out of this place
Make it happen
Someday,
Make it last,
It'll be so hard,
You don't know how much this is
We'll go so far
You'll see its not far
We'll go so far,
You'll see its not so
Never gonna know
Never gonna know
Lets go
Out of this place
Make it happen
Someday
the early november >> make it happen

the new distillers cd is amazing i highly reccomend it..
the distillers--love is paranoid
i step right of the edge
let the blood rush to my head
im going down to where the lucky ones have bled
i lift the veil up to reveal the fascination
and if you crave it
then you know that you are injured..
and im, holding on
and im, holding on
for what you do to me
oh baby theres no measure
ive taken everything
and now i want to give it
i left the lights on so you stumble in devotion
so easy, so easy
its left unspoken
and im, holding on
and im, holding on
ive come to realize that your the only thing i want
im falling all the way
im falling all the way
ive come to realize that your the only thing i want
im falling all the way in
im falling all the way in
im fallen
ive fallen all the way in....

Fall out boy x Grand Theft Autumn [ Where is your boy ]
Where is your boy tonight, i hope he is a gentleman.
Maybe he wont find out what I know,
you were the last good thing about this part of town
When I wake up, I'm willing to take my chances on the hope.
You hate him more than you notice i wrote this for you.
You need him, i could be him, i could be an accident but I'm still trying
That's more than i can say for him.
[chorus]
Where is your boy tonight, i hope he is a gentleman.
Maybe he wont find out what I know,
You were the last good thing about this part of town
Someday I'll appreciate in value, get off my ass and call you.
But for the meantime I'll sport my
brand new fashion of waking up with pants off at 4:00 in the afternoon
You need him, i could be him, i could be an accident but I'm still trying,
That's more than i can say for him.
Where is your boy tonight i hope he is a gentleman.
maybe he wont find out what I know,
You were the last good thing about this part of town.
He won't find out, He won't find out.
Where is your boy tonight i hope he is a gentleman.
Maybe he wont find out what I know,
You were the last good thing about this part of town.

--Matchbook Romance--Promise-- |

We could be perfect one last night,
And die like star crossed lovers when we fight.
And we can settle this affair,
If you would shed your yellow.
Take my hand and then
We'll solve the mystery of laceration gravity,
This riddle of revenge.
Please understand that it has to be this way and
Stand
Up fucking tall,
Don't let them see your back and
Take
My fucking hand,
And never be afraid again.
We've only got one chance to put things at an end,
And cross the patron saint of switchblade fights.
You said,
We're not celebrities,
We spark and fade,
They die by threes.
I'll make you
Understand,
And you can trade me for an apparation
Stand
Up fucking tall,
Don't let them see your back and
Take
My fucking hand,
And never
Trust.
You said, who put the words in your head?
Oh how wrong we were to thinkg
That immortality meant never dying.

Bright Eyes - "Let's Not Shit Ourselves (To Love And Be Loved)"
The animals laugh from the dark of the wilderness. A baby cried hard in an apartment complex,
as I pass a car buried under the influence. The city is driving me out of my mind.
I have seen a child is caught in the sad trap of gravity.
He falls from the lowest branch of the apple tree and lands in the grass and weeps for his dignity.
Next time he will not aim so high. Yeah, next time, neither will I.
A mother takes loans out, sends her kids off to colleges.
Her family is reduced to names on a shopping list.
Meanwhile, a coroner kneels beneath a great, wooden crucifix.
He know that there are worse things than being alone.
I have learned to retreat at the first sign of danger.
I mean, why wait around, if it's just to surrender? Ambition, I have found, can only lead to failure.
I do not read the reviews. No, I am not singing for you.
I stood dropping a coin into the pit of a well. And I would throw my whole billfold
if I thought it would help. With all these wishes I make,
I should by something great, at least a telephone call home.
My teachers, they built the retaining wall memory, all those multiple choices I answered so quickly.
And I got my grades back and forgot just as easily, but as least I got an A.
So I don't have them to blame. I should stop pointing fingers;
reserve my judgment of all those public action figures, the cowboy president.
So loud behind the bullhorn so proud they can't admit when they have made a mistake.
While poison ink spews from a speechwriter's pen, he knows that he doesn't have to say it,
so it don't bother him. "Honesty" "Accuracy" are really just "Popular Opinion."
And the approval rating is high, so someone is going to die. ABC, NBC, CBS: Bullshit.
They give us fact or fiction? I guess an even split. And each new act of war is tonight's entertainment.
We are still the pawns in their game. As they take an eye for an eye until no one can see,
we must stumble blindly forward, repeating history. Well, I guess that we all fit into your slogan
on the fast food marquee: Red blooded, White skinned oh and the Blues.
I got the Blues! I got the Blues! That's me! That's me!
Well, I awoke in relief. My sheets and tubes were all tangled weak from whiskey and pills,
in a Chicago hospital. My father was there, in a chair, by the window, staring so far away.
I tried talking, just whispered, "...so sorry...so selfish..." He stopped me and said,
"Child I love you regardless and there is nothing you could do that would ever change this.
I'm not angry. It happens. You just can't do it again."
So now I try to keep up, I have been exchanging my currency.
While a million objects pass through my periphery. So now I am rubbing my eyes because
they are starting to bother me. I have been staring too long at the screen.
But where was it when I first heard the sound of humility? It came to my ears in the goddamn
loveliest melody. How grateful I was then to be part of the mystery,
to love and be loved. Let's just hope that is enough.
Anyone know where I can find this song? I can't seem to find it anywhere!!!

there are stories in the soil, loose leaves cover the ground
there's volumes in the forest, no one reads out loud
if i could take them down off of that mountain shelf
we used to climb but no one tries to go up that far now yeah
we're all too busy working, entertaining ourselves
forty hours television and prescription pills
well i take two a day to make my brain behave
it never does but who's to say at least my doctor gets paid
so that's fine, yeah come by we'll take the afternoon off
we can kiss and undress or if you want just talk
cause i've got nothing real, just empty space to fill
and you're my girl i like your style just imagine all the time we could kill
and time's not poison but once you drink it all you'll die
so let's just sip it real slow
yeah we can nurse it all night
try to believe that once it's gone
we'll pour another round and come back to life
come right back
i guess i'm moving faster now or that's what they said
and though some days still take forever i can't disagree
because it seems to me that i wake up and sleep
look in the mirror have no idea what happened in between
but i remember counting days down 'til the year could be done
so i could scatter all my notebooks on the prep school lawn
and disappear again into a summer's bliss
of staying out sleeping in and getting drunk with my friends
that's gone and i know that it won't ever come back
i accept i won't cling to what i had in the past
but life's a slippery slope, regret's the steepest hill
hope for the best, plan for the worst and maybe wind up somewhere
in the middle
and i'm not saying that i know what i want
but i know what i don't, don't want to rot in my room
and never know what could have been
believe what everyone else tells me is true
yeah, they say 'true'
that's what they say

my heart is on my sleeve
wear it like a bruise or blackeye
my badge, my witness
that means that i believed
every single lie you said (and learned from the best)
cause every pain of glass that your pebbles tap negates
the pains i went through to avoid you
and every little pat on the shoulder for attention fails to mention i still hate you
but there's a light on in chicago
and i know i should be home
all the corners of the street signs..
they remind me of the pickup truck out in front of your neighbor's house
she took me down and said:
"boy's like you are overrated. so save your breath."
loaded words and loaded friends
are loaded guns to our heads
cause every pain of glass that your pebbles tap
negates the pains i went through to avoid you
and every little pat on the shoulder for attention fails to mention i still hate you
but there's a light on in chicago
and i know i should be home
all the corners of the street signs..
they remind me of the pickup truck out in front of your neighbor's house
you want apologies
girl, you might hold your breath
until your breathing stops forever, forever
the only thing you'll ever get
is this curse on your lips:
i hope they taste of me forever
but there's a light on in chicago
and i know i should be home
all the corners of the street signs..
they remind me of the pickup truck out in front of your neighbor's
with every breath i wish your body will be broken again
Good band.

Matchbook Romance -- My Eyes Burn
My eyes burn from these tears
You'd think I'd learn over the years
Good things won't last forever
So what the hell am I supposed to do
You only wanted the things I couldn't give to you
and you had it all anyway
So take, take everything and leave me, scrambling
Reaching for something that wasn't there in the first place
Tell me I'm wrong when I say I can't expect you
To spend forever with me
I live for that single moment
I take back everything I said
You wore, those words on your lips as if they, meant anything anyway
Sometimes I feel I could drop off the face of the earth
It seems I do more harm than good
I don't know if its worth me losing sleep over this

Thursday |
] |
The stage is set to rip the wings from a butterfly
(The stage is set)
The stage is set, don't forget to breathe between the lines
If the whole world dies it's safe to take the stage
And these cliffs will stretch like landing strips
Hospitals are dead in the fields
We won't have to be afraid anymore
The crowd is growing silent with the gathering sort
If the curtain falls and you're caught on the other side
Just trying to keep up the act
We lie in the back of black cars with the windows rolled down
Joining a procession of emptiness
If we say these words, it will be too late to take them back
So we hold our breath and fold our hands
Like paper planes (We're going to crash)
We don't have to be alone ever again
There's a riot in the theatre
Someones standing in the aisles
(Killers and Murderers)
Are everywhere and they're lining up
(Carving the air in a sigh)
Standing alone (this time)
When the curtain falls and you're caught on the other side
Just trying to keep up the act
We lie in the back of black cars with the windows rolled down
Just joining a procession of emptiness
The stage is set to rip the wings from a butterfly
Pull the curtain back, kill all the house lights
Pin the dress with lotus flowers
The silk is spinning round and round with the ceiling fan
I'm disapearing into the spotlight
I'm on display, the butterfly and the scarecrow
With smiles like picket fences
We try to throw up and leave this outside
This voice is silent now
The boat has sunk, we are on our own
But we're not going to win
I am unhealthily obsessed with Thursday, I have to listen to them everyday. :)
I also want friends, if you want to add me then comment here or in my journal(it's friends only) I'll add you back.

Lovers & Liars - Matchbook Romance
Let's start out by starting over.
What did I expect?
You're no good at lying and I'm no good at comebacks.
You're so untouchable.
I'm oh-so-terrible at this.
I'm terrible at this, you know.
Don't hold this against me.
I've already said I'm sorry.
And I bet you've got every word I said memorized in your head.
And you'll use every one of them against me.
Don't hold this against me.
I've already said I'm sorry.
Tell all your friends about me.
Don't hold this against me.
I've already said I'm sorry.
I hope you choke on every word you spoke when you were screaming at me.
I realize how many times you tried, but that's wishful thinking.
All I want is an apology for what you did and how you treated me.
Get me far away, or at least as far as this car will take me.
Tell all your friends about me.
Don't hold this against me.
I've already said I'm sorry.
Don't hold this against me.
I've already said I'm sorry.

SAVES THE DAY
"Certain Tragedy"
And now I finally see that the further we go
we're only treading ground that we already know.
I could write you a song, send you a note, or empty out your trash
and buy a bucket full of diamonds but
even the most beautiful of all roses must someday crumble to dust
and fade away.
It's a certain tragedy.
So it's on into the lonely nights and all the rest of it.
The empty space between me and the sunken walls
and feeling someone's hand around my neck
choking away the life that i have left.
And I can finally see that the further I go I'm only treading ground
that I don't wanna know.
I'll probably hang upside-down from wooden rafters in my home
and look at old photos of you.
So it's on into the lonely nights and all the rest of it.
The empty space between me and the sunken walls
and feeling someone's hand around my neck
choking away the life that i have left.
I miss the warmth of the summer when we were on our own,
but now it's winter and my bones are cold.
And now I finally see that the further we go we're only treading ground
that we already know.
I could write you a song, send you a note, or empty out your trash
and buy a bucket full of diamonds but
even the most beautiful of all roses must someday crumble to dust
and fade away.
It's a certain tragedy.

Something Corporate - Down |
] |
w0w do I ever ♥ Something Corporate! =D
"Down - Something Corporate"
Let's get drunk
You can drive us to the harbor
Wish upon a star but
Do you know what stars are?
Balls of fire, burning up the black space
Falling from the landscape
Exploding in the face of God
Let's get crazy,
Talk about our big plans
Places that you're going
Places that I haven't been
Build my walls up
Concrete castle
Keep this kingdom free of hassle, yeah
Yeah
Yeah
But I hear sound echo in the emptiness
All around, but you can't change this loneliness
Look at what you've found, I'm falling down
Taste the saline rolling down your cheekbone
Tell me that you're alone, tell me on the telephone
Feel your heart it breaks within your chest now
Try to get some rest now, sleeps not coming easy for a while, child
Child, yeah
But I hear sound echo in the emptiness
All around, but you can't change this loneliness
Look at what you've found, I'm falling down
Down, down
Down, down
But I hear sound echo in the emptiness
All around, but you can't change this loneliness
Look at what you've found, I'm falling down
Look at what you've found, I'm falling down

Something Corporate-As You Sleep |
] |
"As You Sleep"
Close your eyes
And I will be swimming
Lullabies fill your room
And I will be singing
Singing to only you
Don't forget I'll hold your head
Watch the night sky fading red
But as you sleep
And no one is listening
I will lift you off your feet
And keep you from sinking
Don't you wake up yet
Cause soon I'll be leaving you
But you won't be leaving me
In the car
The radio leaves me searching for your star
A constellation of frustration
Driving Hard
Singing my thoughts back to me
Like watching heartache on TV
But as you sleep
And no one is listening
I will lift you off your feet
And keep you from sinking
Don't you wake up yet
Cause soon I'll be leaving you
But you won't be leaving me
Singing my thoughts back to me
Like watching heartache on TV
But as you sleep
And no one is listening
I will lift you off your feet
And keep you from sinking
Don't you wake up yet
Cause soon I'll be leaving you
Soon I'll be leaving you
But you won't be leaving me
-does anyone know any good songs that deal with no self-confidence, broken families, remembering good memories and times with another..please leave me a comment

"You Could Make A Killing" Amiee Mann |
] |
I love this song.
"Be My Angel" Mazzy Star
They say it's me that makes you do things
You might not have done if I was away
And that's it's me that likes to talk to you
And watches you as you walk away
Don't say it's useless, don't say forget it
Don't bring me wishes of silly dreams
Just save us all from too much freedom
Too many fingers and too many seams
They say it's you that washes the weary
And brings the night into the day
If you won't notice how can I show you
All of your worries have all gone away?
Don't leave me lonely, don't leave me unhappy
Just bring me up into your faith
If you don't need me, then don't deceive me
Letting my freedom turn into stone
Just be my angel if you love me
Be my angel in the night
Be my angel cause you need me
Be my angel and treat me right
Don't say "Love me" if you don't need me
Don't send me roses on your behalf
Just take me down and walk through your river
Down in the middle and make it last
Holdin onto you, holdin onto me
Holdin on tight to my lover's cross
Don't say it's useless and don't say forget it
You are my spirit and now you are gone

| Then I ask, have you ever felt abandoned, felt so lost that you were stranded... |
[06 Nov 2003|09:59pm] |
When In Doubt - 1000 Foot Krutch, is an amazing song. I said so before, and posted the lyrics and I listened to it for like, ever.. but then it got pushed back in my playlist so I barely heard it anymore. I just thought of it tonight for some reason, so Im listening to it and Im gonna post the lyrics. Theyre not exactly emo, but I love the song. If you havent heard it you should really download it.
When In Doubt
We sat upon your bed,
You said the things you said
And I could not believe that you seem so naive
We exchanged our poetry,
You seem to think a lot like me
I'll guess I'll just assume that we could talk about most anything
Then I asked have you ever felt abandoned?
Felt so lost that you were stranded,
Just like all the walls are closing in
And you were left inside
Have you ever felt like your days were numbered?
Stuck under a tree in thunder
Seems to be no way out!
But there is One when in doubt
Ready for another day
Slowly watch ya waste away,
Havin' fun, bein' cool
Like we did in high school,
Elementary romance, feelin' nervous at the dance,
Crack a smile hold it down,
Whatever the circumstance,
Sex, Drugs, Hadda be cool,
All the things we learned in school,
Typical teenage machines,
Anyone tell me what this means?
I could learn, I could try,
Never really had an alibi
Wish I did, that's no lie
Everybody's asking
(chorus)
Why
When you feel like you cant fly
You gotta know I got the answer for ya baby,
Drives ya crazy, it's not over
Theres so much more to life then this
Why?
When you feel like you cant cry
You gotta know I got the answer for ya baby,
Drives ya crazy it's not over
Theres so much more to life then this
- Music interlude -
Things seem so hallucinary,
In the corners of my mind they scare me,
I know ya never meant to desert me,
Just like ya never really meant to hurt me
Then I ask have you ever felt abandoned?
Felt so lost that you were stranded,
Just like all the walls are closing in
And you were left inside
Have you ever felt like your days were numbered?
Stuck under a tree in thunder
Seems to be no way out
But there is One when in doubt
And you ask
(chorus)
So much more to life than this

hey...i remember a while ago i saw this really great song and i took the lyrics and put it in my profile. well then i was thinking that i wanted to listen to the song but i didnt know what it was called so i was searching some of the lyrics in it and no matches. so i think someone wrote it. this is it:
just when i thought i was over you
i saw your face again
and everything i swore not to do
it started up again
heart's beating fast, i'm reacting slow
breathing is too hard
hoping this lasts, i know it won't
i'll break and fall apart
don't show
you're face here anymore
i always fall for you harder than i did before
ill go
even tho ill miss you so
it hurts to think i love you more than you'll ever know
i would give anything for a rhyme
when summer seemed too long
surprised how did i waste my time
surprised i wrote you this song
don't show
you're face here anymore
i always fall for you harder than i did before
ill go
even tho ill miss you so
it hurts to think i love you more than you'll ever know
this game where i laugh and cry
hide how i feel inside
unwilling to confide
dreading my final ride
shaking behind a lie
playing this 'do or die'
anyway...my point is id like to know who wrote it...then i could give them credit :]

My ex sent this song to me. He was supposed to sing it to me, but he never got around to doing it. Everytime I listen to it..it brings back so many memories.. I still love him, and it was my fault that everything ended between us. Now he has somebody else, but him and I still share something that is ending quick.. and this song just,... reminds me that I don't want to lose him =|
Ataris Looking Back On Today lyrics
30th of April, seems like yesterday.
We bought a house above the ocean
Where our kids could laugh and play.
I called you from Paris
To tell you that I wrote our names on the observation deck
Of the Eiffel Tower.
Remember those nights,
Playing "Summer wind" on the juke box of the bar we used to go.
We made out in the bathroom and you walked me to my house,
I tried to convince you not to go home.
If only i had more time, I'd take you where you wanted to go.
Italy isn't the same without you here.
If only I had one wish, I'd want a million tillion lifetimes
That I could spend with you...
Fall in love with you again and again.
1st of November, 1998.
I was thinking of what to say when I could call.
Denice come over to my house, cuz you're the one for me.
We'll drink cheap wine and watch more shooting stars.
Remember our first apartment?
Our couch was never big enough for two.
Still, we'd fall asleep in eachother's arms and wake up on the floor.
Now looking back it was made for me and you.
If only I had more time, I'd take you where you wanted to go.
Japan is really nice this time of year.
If only I had one wish, I'd want a million trillion lifetimes
That I could spend with you...
Fall in love with you again and again.

[The Prizefight]-[Goodnight Kiss]
Don't say goodnight, and walk away without that kiss that you owe me.
Don't close your eyes, and say you don't want me. I wish that you'd want me now.
You know that I promised I'd always have an ear for you to lend.
But now your syllables are phrases I don't understand.
Calling out in desperation.
Fighting off this suffocation.
Screaming out loud.
Wanting so bad to be heard.
When the days end and you're cold from standing out alone.
The only voice of recognition is your own.
Crying out in desperation.
Begging to be heard.
But only you can hear your words.

Something corporate~
I Want To Save You
standing on the edge of morning
scent of sex and new found glory
playing as she's pulling back her hair
she drives away
she's feeling worthless
used again but nothing's different
she stayed the night
but knows he doesn't care
home by three
deafening quiet
the porch light's off
yes they forgot it
she cried herself to sleep
but she don't dare
then she wants to be a model
she wants to hear she's beautiful
she's beautiful
i want to save you
i want to save you
i need you save me too
i want to save you
dressed by dawn and out the door
no light
she memorized the floor
so she could leave without being detected
she works till three
it's uniform
she dreams that he'll come by the store
she prays for days
the boys mean she's protected
and she wants someone to see her
she needs to hear she's beautiful
she's beautiful
i want to save you
i want to save you
i need you
save me too
i want to save you
and she won't sleep
she won't sleep
and she won't sleep
at all
i want to save you
i want to save you
i need you
save me too
i want to save you
(let me save you)
i want to save you
(let me save you)
i want to save you
(let me save you)
i want to save you
